In glorious dusk,
the sky flames up at sunset:
Two snails cross the street.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Poetry sometimes takes the form of conversation with other poets. I selected "Oh snail" by the Japanese poet Issa Kobayashi (1763-1828)to illustrate here my point:

Oh snail,
climb Mt. Fuji,
but slowly, slowly.
